Sample Book

My partner and I are publishing our first paperback through Lulu. To get my sample book to go over before our final book is released to the world. Do we buy a book and is that considered our sample book? Also I cant seem to price the book the price I want.

If you have completed the Project Wizard, then from your My Projects click on Revise and it will open a page where many defaults are listed, which you can Edit if you ever need to (without having to buy Proofs) but towards the top right you should see the option to buy a Proof (your sample) click that. Once you have had a good look at the printed book and are happy with it, then on that same Revise page click Approve. If not happy and you want to adjust the actual book then enter the Wizard again (with your adjusted items ready) and click the other option instead. ( I forget the exact wording. Create New Edition or something.)

Note that for even a very very simple change to the book's contents or cover you have to go all the way through the Wizard again.
